Delhi traffic police launches drive against polluting vehicles

The Hindu  

The Delhi traffic police has launched a drive against polluting vehicles as the air quality deteriorated sharply in the city with toxic smog choking its residents. The police action has come as emergency measures to tackle air pollution under the Stage 4 of Graded Response Action Plan kicked in on November 2. The government has also ordered for the implementation of the odd-even vehicle rationing plan from November 13 to 20 to reduce pollution caused by vehicles as the air quality index reading in the city slipped into the ‘severe’ category. Delhi’s 24-hour average air quality index was 421 at 4 p.m. Monday, down from 454 on Sunday, as per the CPCB’s daily official bulletin.
